This Certificate of Achievement is awarded to the forty talented young professionals that will be recognized by the 40 Under 40 Program, based on their passion, commitment, visibility, diversity and overall impact on the region. Each year, Pittsburgh Magazine and PUMP sponsor the 40 Under 40 Program with the goal of recognizing 40 people under the age of 40 who are committed to shaping our region and making it a better place for everyone to live, work and play. Selected from a nomination pool of more than 240 candidates, this year’s honorees were chosen by an independent panel of judges, comprised of former winners, business professionals and civic leaders. On Friday, October 30, 2015 at the Westin Hotel, the forty awardees will be honored for their professional and community achievements. We congratulate each 40 Under 40 Honoree, and thank you for your commitment to affecting positive change in Pittsburgh and Allegheny County.
